Well, not clear that it'd be hard -- you'd just need to add a few
#ifdefs on the presence of the compat code in a few places.  (i.e., if
you've got the compat code in the kernel, you pay the price, otherwise
you don't -- testing for its presence would cost more than that the
single store, probably anyway... 8-)


but, anyway, not clear that it's worth it -- and who really knows if
it's the only trouble spot.
